Who was the laughing, half-demented man in the mirror of the vintage car? What was the creature guarding Willy's aunt's house? Or the pulsing, jelly-like blob in the corner of the elevator? These chilling stories have one thing in common: the unexpected. Five spine-chilling stories "to savor, ponder, and read again".--Kirkus Reviews.
